    remember bottom 3 have same % chances at first pick. We don't have to be the worst team in the history of the league to have a shot at top 2 ;) and remember... its still only a shot! imagine if we are the worst team and land #3-#5. Stone would be fired on the spot

    dude you cant just quick tanking when you want it...its an addiction... like doing drugs...its stays in your system for a long time even after you quit!

    tanking/losing bad habits, bad stink and bad mentality stays with you even when you dont want it anymore...people are utterly naive...

    its like an addiction to drugs or say to stealing... you don't just wake up one day and say tomorrow i am gonna quit the criminal, live of my work, gona find a job and live an honest life but ill do just this one robbery tonight to set my self for the future life of honesty
    lololoolol
    it just doesnt work that way and sooner or later you gonna be back and the bad stink and habits will be after you and consequences of what you did gonna find you no matter what...

    Almost as if the problems on this team go beyond 1 or 2 players. Who would have guessed? :rolleyes:

    lolol your backward thinking just goes to prove what tanking does and how its suffocates the brains of the fanbase as well as the management and the locker room...More talent infusion is never a solution to being bad because the talent was never a problem in the first place...

    mark my words even if we get wemby, at first injury to whomever on the team, be it wemby, or alpi or jalen people will be calling for more tanking because there is this one new cute role player that would fit nicely with wemby, imagine lineup of green wemby insert the newly hyped name... you know the drill

    The fourth worst still got a 12.5% at No 1 which ain't that bad either.

    Didn't watch the game but I had a legit laugh when I saw Nix's box score.

    How does he keep getting minutes? How is it not obvious to everyone on the Rockets that he is not an NBA player? I don't get it. TyTy was there, and while TyTy sucks right now, he potentially could get better. So why not play him?

    Seriously our Nix obsession is the strangest such obsession I've ever seen with the Rockets. We've never been so adamant about playing someone who was so bad and who shows no promise of ever being good.

    Keep Silas until the end of the season for lottery purposes but fire the man the moment regular season ends.

    Nix is Silas' joker card, ensuring the Rockets do not win any games while KPJ is out with an injury.
